Loss

445 BC a king ruled that fathers no longer had the right to kill their wife and children. The fathers complained about the loss of rights because now they would not be able to control their family which would eventually lead to women having too much free time.

That thought brings to mind the Holy Spirit doing the heavy lift of conception, and The Blessed Virgin Mary lying around slack for nine months (Can you imagine:
1. Arc Angel Michael telling The Blessed Virgin Mary that She is pregnant, and The Blessed Virgin Mary telling an angel that She, fifteen year old under aged child, has known no man. 2. Being a pregnant 15 year old girl 2000 years ago (Is pregnant at fifteen a loss?), 3. Being pregnant and not having anyone kissing you, not having anyone holding you, not having anyone saying I love you? Not a loss according to some. At that time in history what is the stress of being pregnant and not knowing the future? Her Baby to be crucified. Think of losing a fifteen year old’s life and baby in a stable for the benefit of Jesus Christ’s future PR image, humble beginnings (If the Holy Spirit can undetectably impregnate a child, He ought to be able to get a room at the inn for the birthing Mother of Jesus Christ, His Son.). A special thanks to the role model committee for setting a high standard for men’s disparaging paternalistic acceptable sexual behavior with teenage girls. Is that not a loss for the future? France suffered a loss when nineteen year old Saint Joan of Arc burned alive (May 30, 1431) by disparaging paternalistic church leaders for witchcraft/heresy (The angels talked to her, and she courageously lead soldiers in battles; they, bishops, blasphemed to their god and cowardly burned her alive.). Add on the loss created by Six Hundred Years of (religious) Inquisition ordered by the Pope 1232-1834) for heresy/witchcraft (32,000 executed, tens of thousands tortured). What has history got to do with today’s losses, (set future standards of acceptable paternalistic behavior)? Women and children are the personification of loss, tsunami after tsunami. Alas, a created compounded loss history of women’s “little stuff” is a time honored burden for noble religious men to duly bare. History burns its brand on its future.
Imagine if you had:
I. A desire to help children, 2. A desire to lessen suffering. 3. Years of experience, 4. Adequate education, 5. Leadership attributes, 6. The ability to stare the tiger in the eye: A. Have him feel fear, B. Have him flinch, C. Have him growl and back away. 7. The durability of the Rock of Gibraltar. 8. A twinge of the kick fanny, take names attitude. 9. A desire to be who you have the potential to be. 10. A desire for adventure, a change, mark territory, lift chin, pop up boobs, square shoulders. Then you can execute number 9 below. Audacity has its pains and rewards.
The basic premise is to prevent loss.
Education is the answer to preventing loss and mitigating loss. It will save revenue suffering and tax dollar suffering.
  1. Savior-faire is usually 85% lacking in preventing/managing a loss. How can that be reduced for the benefit of insurance companies and taxpayers? Oh, and other victims!
  2. A loss creates a vacuum.
  3. A vacuum has energy.
  4. The energy is empowerment (negative or positive).
  5. The energy must be utilized.
  6. Convert the energy into a positive. Like a vulture circling, the mind keeps wastefully circling the loss. To stop the circling, create an intensive passionate positive like playing a musical instrument, painting, learning a language, training horses. Focus on being the best you can be. Let the vortex draw you in. The effort will produce a credit to yourself while in recovery.
  7. A vacuum has a craving/energy to be filled.
  8. A vacuum will satisfy itself by either good or evil.
  9. The process of satisfying may be either conscious/subconscious.
  10. One should consider one’s history of coping with loss.
  11. Discover the hidden loss profile. A person develops a unique profile for managing loss from a young age. Some bottle it up; Some hide in closet; some express it. The loss may be real or imagined or small or large; whatever the case the loss profiles will have similarities. Preschool teachers should have a required college class about loss (a state law?). A trained teacher with workbooks could prevent classroom downtime (Is knot getting an A a loss? Is receiving a disparaging remark a loss? Is depression a symptom of loss?). Students would know/sense the teacher has their back. How many losses in lifetime? How much productivity is lost? How many criminal acts are related to erroneous self loss management? How many more desperate women staggering muddy paths to hope carrying an infant and a bundle? That scene, a child sees on tv is sensed as a loss of humanity! Take ownership of it. Someone wrote, “If a poet, there would be deeper feelings which could not be describe.”
  12. Do people believe (feel), as opposed to think, their future has more loss or more security? Do children hear/sense more positive or negative from their parents? Extrapolate the answer for the nation.
  13. Objectivity is elusive; seek guidance.
  14. Counter-diction: A loss is not always a loss if managed.
  15. One learns and strengthens by one’s self prevailing over obstacles/losses.
  16. Loss needs a support program/team for recovery. Not having support (one to ten) is its self is a loss. It (support or lack of it) is a constant intangible stress agent that affects billions of people. Who has your back, jack? One consciously does not even know (How does a mother know the terrifying nightmare of a two year old?) the intangible within that needs support. How are family members supposed know their teenage girl needs a certain type of psychological support. Sport, you don’t miss the water until the well runs dry.
  17. A pregnant woman is in constant fear of loss; then the infant extends it. Then there is war, torturing/killing part of a Mother. Life stages: the loss of childhood, a teenager, income ability, mobility, hearing. What are the intangible losses of the mind, the self image, the personality. Pride, image, vanity are good friends. When they are injured, when they’re revengeful or when they are a bit excessive, they often create, act out loss (arson, drugs, theft, suicide, guns, wrecks).
  18. Diagnose the severity of loss. Is it really a loss? An objective diagnosis is a good diagnosis. Who or what created the loss? Is the loss exaggerated? Just what is the bottom line loss? Analyze the emotions involved. Did the loss pile on top of another former similar loss (compounded emotions, the last straw)? What fears/vulnerabilities existed prior to loss? Assess damage to psyche. Outline an individual recovery program.
  19. Call upon the Goddess of Extrapolation for divine intervention.
  20. For millions of people what is the real or imagined psychological loss created by AI? What is the psychological loss created by the speed of change? What is the psychological loss created by cowardly corrupt politicians? What is the psychological loss created by an inadequate foundation? How can a psychological safety net be designed? Bottom line is that none of us have had classroom instruction about how to manage loss. If we had had it, how much more happy, healthy, secure would our lives have been? How much would it have decrease taxpayer expenses (prison costs)? How much would it had increased government revenue? Just how much dead/rotten wood is in the education department and legislation department? Why don’t parents sue the local school districts and colleges for not teaching loss management to students with guns? Stare the tiger the eye, make the tiger feel fear, make the tiger flinch. Be who are meant to be, a civilized human. Be who you can be, and we will join/follow/lead you.
